Natasha’s Law

Natasha’s Law
by Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D.

Murphy’s Law states that
“anything that can go wrong, will
and always at the worst possible moment”

Parkinson’s Law says that
“work will expand to fill
all the available time”

The Peter Principle observes that
“everyone rises eventually
to a level of incompetence”

And now hear my discovery:
“possessions will expand
to fill all the available space”

This process is not reversible
possessions don’t shrink
when space is reduced

I speak from experience.
